Yep, I've lost count of how many times I've watched it, like most fans. I fully expected that Disney might have some kind of out tbh given that its Disney. Full respect to them for doing it the right way.

I've got to say, I wasn't impressed with Rogue 1 when I watched it first and was loath to watch it again. Luckily I got passed the first impressions and I quite like it now. Especially good with a few beers, kids and wife out and the volume turned up.

i think its the expectation all around. if ever a film or story is like WOW!!! how on earth do you follow that? most times the buzz is gone and criticism abounds. for me i look at eadh one as a self contained story and only take note of how it fits within a story rc (assuming there is one) sequels have got to be really bad for me to not like them - having said that Prometheus is high on the list

that had to happen, it was mentioned way back in 76, "a lot of people died for these plans" said Mon Mothmma as they discussed the attack on the Death Star. tion. ... ring a bell.

Liked that about the film, made it far more realistic, I hate it when they somehow find a dodgy way out of it all

Not to out nerd you both but that was in Jedi. Those comments were about the second death star, which is why you didnt see any Bothans die in Rogue One. Rogue One is about getting the plans for the original Death Star, so there ending for certain characters could have been very different.

Now Kal is dying on the inside for not realising this sooner.

Daaaamn!

As many times as I've watched the original trilogy, even I didn't pick that up. I feel embarrassed now.

TBH I've not watched it in ages (waiting for the kids to get a bit older to get them into it).

edit: another interesting titbit. it seems another actor has jumped ship on the proposed Flash film.. goes from bad to worse for the DCEU

Seconded. This has been a thoroughly entertaining re-imagining

On DC, I don't know how long they can keep throwing money at these, lets be frank, barrel scrapping excuses for entertainment. I feel they have to junk the whole process and start from scratch or just stop altogether. Not one of the latest crop has been above a 5 IMO (after re-watching a few of them) whereas the MCU seem to go from strength to strength. Even Marvel films outside of the MCU are finding their range with a couple of great recent turnouts by Logan and Deadpool.

totally agree mate, though logan was by far one of the best x-men films i've seen for quite awhile and shows what can be done once a studio keeps thier nose out of things. i get that some oversight is required but think way too many worry about things that have no right impacting a film being made.

latest rumours i have a bad vibe regarding justice league and flash more so than any, can't keep a director at all as is the way with the batman film.. big issues. on the good side, hearing good things regarding wonder woman... watch this space.

Ahhh, that does offer a different perspective entirely......any excuse for me to watch it again really and I'm happy
